Believe, Dwight, you did it!

It was just that this moment in time, on the west door of the LDS Institute, was perhaps the most significant seminal moment in my life up to that time. The odds of getting a University degree and surviving those difficult years had reached a final point. And I haven&#39;t realized just how crucial that point was until posting this picture. That is the wonder of reconnecting with our photos and our past. Thank you, but give more credit to yourselves for enduring my years of sibling abuse.Dwighthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06174492647465668322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4114307744147144762.post-69804242267796984792010-08-11T09:46:17.890-06:002010-08-11T09:46:17.890-06:00Your life is the perfect example of how when you t...Your life is the perfect example of how when you take that step into the darkness the light appears. I always knew you had grit from the beginning when you ventured to Laramie with nothing, and as I said in my story you just figured it out as you went along. I&#39;m glad you wrote this because it&#39;s always good to remind ourselves to have that courage and faith and to believe in ourselves and what we could accomplish. You are a wonderful example to all of us.Louise Bloodhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13720563725669666384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4114307744147144762.post-72808415353218771872010-08-10T19:48:26.957-06:002010-08-10T19:48:26.957-06:00I had just turned 18 - this was a major time for m...I had just turned 18 - this was a major time for me because Dwight got me two jobs that allowed me to begin my college career in the fall of 1953, after working all summer. Thank you, Dwight, you really paved the way for me.

Tender thoughts about an amazing time in your life - I love the insight, the optimism that told you it was all possible, and the example you were to all of us. So, in spite of (or because of) the years of teasing, harassment, picking on younger and older siblings, you have accomplished amazing things with your life. You are still a wonderful example of what can be accomplished when you believe you can do what you need to do. Love you lots.Annhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06652616779595499610noreply@blogger.com
